Conditions of Contract (TC1)
When to use it: TC1 is available for use when the Developer requires some basic terms and conditions to issue to Contractors who are tendering for or pricing their work. It provides a basis for the agreement between the parties and deals with issue of payment, time for completion and variations and extras. TC1 is available in two versions. TC1a/c is a low cost form of contract but contains restrictions on its use in that it cannot be amended and the document contains a watermark that cannot be removed. Amendable versions (TC1b/d) can be purchased on request. These permit the Developer to make amendments to selected clauses and provides more flexibility in use.
